My boss is also trying to see if we can just raise my pay by $1,000 to avoid this. She is good and was a little blindsided as well. But I guess I can try to rearrange my brain to separate work from life. Normally I would be answering work emails right now (so my work day could progress- I get over 200 emails a day and just managing that is what I do in the early morning, late evening, on the bus ride where I don’t think they would appreciate me clocking in!)

Jeez Sophia, that sucks. And they can’t have a virtual time clock so you could punch in on your work computer from wherever you are?? You’d think they could.
It is too early but I woke up at 5 and wasn’t falling back asleep so I guess I’m up?? Gross. But I have today off so I guess I’ll take a nap later. Made it to Palm Springs yesterday where I’m staying for December. Place is nice and I’ve missed this friend. Hoping this’ll be fun!

Our wings are not tired.
I do hope your boss is able to work out something, Sophia.

Oh, wow, yeah, I hope your boss can get you the bump. That's a whole lot to suddenly have to rearrange.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Sophia, that absolutely sucks balls.
I am hourly and also cannot work overtime without prior approval, but we do not click in and out, so me working my hours is all on the honor system. And if I work overtime by error or guilt without expecting comp time that can happen too.
Office staff being on punch clicks makes zero sense to me.

Fingers crossed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Phew!
Ugh, Sophia, that sounds so counter-productive. I hope you can get that salary bump and not punch an actual time clock!
Palm Springs for December sounds very nice, meara!
I am trying to decide how much time to dedicate to trying to see Princess Kate, and I think the answer is 10 minutes. I'll walk by when I can but not wait around.

That is so inane, Sophia! I’m glad to hear your boss sounds supportive. Hope this works out for you.
I’m jealous of a month in Palm Springs!!!
